C-12 and C13 REPTO configurations

These two engines come with a Rear Engine Power Take-Off (REPTO) configuration. That means there’s no need to reconfigure a standard engine for REPTO applications.1 It’s a simpler repower for you and a time- and money-saver for your customers.

Which trucks can I repower with a C-12 or C13?

It depends on which Cat engine your customer is currently running. You can choose a C-12 or C13 Cat Reman engine with new content to replace any of these models:

  • C-12
  • C13
  • 3176
  • 3306
  • C-10
  • C11

What do you mean by “new content”?

Cat Reman engines with new content are fully assembled solutions that come with 100% new cylinder blocks, crankshafts and cylinder heads. They’re an ideal repair option for truck owners who:

  • Need to restart the lifecycle of an engine, making future overhauls possible.
  • Want to move from an older, higher-emitting model to a newer, lower-emitting one.
  • Want to replace another engine brand with a Cat Reman engine of similar displacement and emissions level (some exclusions apply).
  • Have an existing core that’s damaged due to failure or has no value due to excessive rust and corrosion.

Will my customers be eligible for core credit?

There’s a good chance they will be. Greater flexibility in core acceptance criteria means we consider damaged, rusted and low-value cores for full core credit.3 That includes:

  • Broken crankshafts
  • Damaged or ventilated blocks
  • Excessive rust and corrosion
  • Fire damage

We also consider competitive cores with similar displacement and the same or newer emissions than the engine being replaced.

2Warranty can vary by model and application; limitations may apply. For complete details about the applicable Caterpillar Limited Warranty, contact an authorized Cat dealer.
